My firefox keeps crashing. I'll just be watching a Youtube video or something like that then it will crash. It has done this about 200 times since 30/08/2014. I will submit a crash report, but nothing ever comes of it. When I reopen Firefox, a window pops up and says that Firefox is already open, then when I close that window, another one says my Firefox profile (?) is missing or something like that. Then it opens normally.
As well, when I see if it needs updates, it says it's up to date, even though the Firefox website itself says it looks like I'm using an older version of Firefox.
On top of that, occassionally Youtube videos will just stop working (the screen will go all fuzzy and say that an error occurred), and lately it seems as though Netflix isn't working properly either, as when I open it it says it failed to load. Once I close an reopen firefox it will work, but I'm not able to browse through all the titles.
Thanks in advance for your response.

After following the instructions on cricut design space, i continue to get the "Update Plugin" required screen. After spending the afternoon working with cricut support, it was determined something in either FireFox or the adobe flash plugin used by FireFox was the culprit. this determination seems to be valid since design space works as expected using Chrome. I don't like Chrome and would much prefer to remain with FireFox but .........
any help would be much appreciated.

I begin in the firefox browser. I click on bookmarks. I click on the xfinity home page and access my emails. I click on the email symbol. I access the email site. I read my emails. I close the site. I then click on sign out. There is a message from firefox which says that firefox will not allow the page to reload. I click on allow. The page goes black and then comes right back. I x out of the message and still can not sign out of the xfinity site.

Have Windows Vista Home Basic running on HP Compac computer. I have no problem printing when using Firefox with one exception: when I try to print from https:/organstanley the brpwser says it is printing but nothing happens. Print queue shows no pending documents to print. I do not have this problem when using IE or Chrome. I have tried refreshing Firefox, resetting Firefox's printer setting and anything else I could think of. Help would be most appreciated.

I installed the Norton Identity Save extension to Firefox which now appears as an icon at the top of the screen. Now when accessing a web site for which credentials are stored in Identity Save (saved via EI and/or Chrome), a log-in is requested. I do not use nor want to use the cloud version of Identity Save. Does Firefox support the non-cloud version of Norton Identity Save and if so how do I access it?

I tried to sign in on a new computer, entered the code I was emailed and was told "code is wrong". I tried 2 more times and each time received the same response. Each time the code was entered correctly. I tried starting over and now it will not accept my password. I tried to reset the password but It would not accept it. So, I asked to reset the password and it said it sent me an email -- but it did not. Tried again with same result.

in firefox, my outlook shows the emails i have in the left column but even after clicking the email they do not show content. a right click will show "loading" but never does load and show. i do not have this problem when i use outlook in other browsers.
thank you

Since I am the only person administering my website, it is much easier to create single webpages (or single website) using "plain vanilla" HTML-CSS instead of creating one webpage for all other browsers, then a different webpage for just FireFox. If I have to always write specialized code for just FireFox, my time spent on maintenance doubles. Don't know about y'all, but my time is the most valuable commodity in the world, being at least ten times more valuable than anything FireFox.

I feel it is ridiculous to force any person, especially those who operate/maintain a website by themselves, to write specialized code to get something to display properly in different browsers. The "plain vanilla" HTML-CSS as recommended by the W3C should ALWAYS work across ALL browsers. No specialized coding or work-around hacks needed.

Additionally, it is huge waste of my time dealing with emails from FireFox users asking me to fix this problem. Especially since I have text near the top of all my webpages stating, "These webpages do NOT display properly in FireFox." I am thinking of changing this text to, "These webpages display properly in all browsers, EXCEPT FireFox." With triple emphasis on EXCEPT.

It is ridiculous to force us to create these work-around hacks to get anything to work in FireFox. Although I may have to create a work-around hack just once, I should NOT have to create it all.

As said, "plain vanilla" HTML-CSS works just fine in all other browsers except FireFox.

Fix the problem!

P.S. - I just recently installed FireFox (v50.0.2) to see if any settings can be changed to make this work. Just another huge waste of my time for my FireFox users...

Occasionally type in a URL that I want to go to and it is automaticly changed to somewhere I don't want. Example can be from the UK trying to use Google.co.uk most of the time but occasionally needing Google.com - get changed back to the .co.uk site. This happens with a variety of sites, sometimes can get it to do what is wanted, other times need to use a different browser.

Would like an add on or some other way that prevented any change in the typed in URL.

when i save a complete webpage, firefox 50.0.2 saves the html file along with its folder, but unlike IE, Chrome or Firefox 44 -
the pair of files created by firefox 50 are not managed as a single file, this creates a bit of a problem if you want to manage stored HTMLS - on the cpu with firefox 44 all i have to do is cut the desired HTMLS and paste them , and the folders will move along with the files - all 3 browsers save pages and work correctly on that cpu

however on the cpu with firefox 50, firefox fails to propperly save the pages, any page that firefox saves, its HTML file will not move along with its corresponding folder.

i would experiment by installing firefox 50 on the cpu, but i dont want to break what does not need fixing

If this behavior cannot be fixed, is there a way to "re-save" or fix locally stored webpages in bulk to restore their behavior so they can be managed as pairs? is there a program that can fix whatever attribute firefox did not give this "broken" HTMLs?
